I just asked what I'm not getting, and you aren't pointing it out. I have exactly what you said quoted, and still don't see what I'm missing. It's your job to make me understand your question if I don't supposedly understand it. I answered exactly what you asked. It is probable you that is fucking up and not asking properly what you want.

It isnt my job but I will try to explain for the 4th time what the question is.
Here is the original question:
"Let me explain to you for the thousandth time in this thread what scientist do:
1. Observe something then ask a question - "I wonder how big Earth is..."
2. Think of an experiment to determine an answer to that question - "With some fancy math and measurements of shadows from two locations that are far apart I can answer this!"
3. Conduct the experiment
4. Have others repeat the experiment to confirm the results. If they match up to yours...congrats. You just solved a question using the scientific method.
Tell me, Eliseus, why do you consider this process like a religion? Do churches/cults build massive telescopes, particle colliders, or launch rovers to Mars and I am unaware of it? When was the last time you see a preacher use a microscope to answer a question during his sermon?"
The number sentences 1-4 are only there to show you exactly what the scientific method is. They werent there as an example of how to form your answer. They were there only to show you what the scientific method was.
I then ask the question, "why do you consider this process like religion?". This is what I want answered. Another way to phrase it would be, "Are those 4 steps inherently religious? If you believe so please explain why". One other way to phrase the question, "Which of these 4 things is religious or are all 4 steps religious?"
I dont know any other way to explain the damn question. If you are able to answer it properly I may even crack open a beer to celebrate.
